Minimal Fiber Diet in Commercial Feedlots

The Thomas Elder Institute conducted a lamb feeding trial in 2018 to evaluate the suitability of ProAgni ProTect S as a supplement in a minimal fiber diet fed to lambs in a commercial feedlot situation.


ProAgni ProTect S is a pelletized feed supplement, designed to be fed with cereal grain rations to provide vitamin and mineral support while helping to optimize feed efficiency and performance. It is appropriate for use in feedlots and drought lots, supplementary feeding, or weaning.


The project determined that Protect S provides suitable protection of lambs fed low fiber diets. Protect S fed lambs achieved good live weight gain with optimal feed efficiency, and Protect S performed to expectation in a commercial feedlot environment.
